I recently completed the book for 2014, as yet untitled. I also received proof copies of the book that is being released in June of this year, entitled „The Devil and The River“. Contractually speaking, I am not now required to submit another book until the middle of 2014. This is – frankly – an utterly impossible scenario for me!
I am a writer. I write all the time. During the last ten years I have published eleven books, but I´ve written somewhere in the region of sixteen or seventeen. Beyond that, I still have twenty-five unpublished novels in my loft. I once asked my wife what we were going to do when we reached our mid-sixties and we had no money because she had spent it all on shoes. Her response was immediate and very specific: „I´ll just take all those manuscripts in the loft and put them on e-bay,“ she said, „and then I´ll buy more shoes.“
